Hey you! You are receiving this newsletter because you are on the early access waitlist for Selleb, the anti-gatekeeping app we are currently building. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being an early supporter! Quick history: Selleb 1.0 was a resale marketplace where a celeb (“Selleb”) could sell their pre-loved clothing. While running our company, we learned that our users were more curious about the brands & items that our Sellebs wore vs owning the actual items hanging in their closets. Hence Selleb 2.0: An anti-gatekeeping app where we aggregate the purchases of those you admire. Please enjoy our newsletter #2 while awaiting our app launch…
BUT FIRST THINGS FIRST…
WE ARE LAUNCHING A REFERRAL PROGRAM!
Send the custom link below to friends & family for a chance to win shopping $$. The top 3 people with the highest # of referrals by September 1, 2023 will each receive $1000 in SHOPPING CREDIT on the Selleb app when it goes live. You’ll be able to buy ANY fashion/beauty products.
Check our newsletters for the weekly leaderboard to see where you stack up <3
Disclaimer: Referrals must be legitimate e-mail addresses and opened by recipients.
We recently returned from visiting family in Asia, where we got the skincare/makeup lowdown from our middle school cousin.
Why trust middle schoolers for skincare? 1) They’re just emerging from pre-pubescence and have the most sensitive/acne-prone skin so they do their due diligence, 2) Their parents typically pay for their skincare habits so they can experiment, and 3) Academic duress is not really a thing yet so they have the time to explore…
Not Chloe asking our Gen Alpha cousin for makeup advice …
Ok, so our cousin even did Chloe’s makeup and tbh, it was better than how Chloe would have done it for herself…
This week’s edition entails an eclectic mélange of our fav purchases, one-off gems that caught our attention, and of course, best internet sales/deals coming up. Let’s get to it.
FAV Purchases
Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops Serum: One of the products our cousin used for Chloe’s makeup. This…in lieu of a primer…will not only make the application of foundation smooth but will literally leave your skin dewy and glow-y all day.
Dolce & Gabbana Butterfly Skirt: Finding unbelievable deals on The RealReal is one of the many small pleasures in a shopper’s life. Not only was this skirt 70% off, but we got an additional discount so the grand total was $59! Feel kind of bad for the seller but hey, they probs snagged some steals, too, in their time on TRR. Buyer’s delight; seller’s remorse - pretty much sums up the shopping experience on TRR.
Nail Stickers: Dip? Gel? Acrylic? Regular? How about DIY nail art with stickers from Amazon? Melody, Hello Kitty, and Cinnamoroll?? Sign us up. Cute options on Etsy too like this this and this.
How can you resist??
Digital Camera from eBay: Always love relics from the early aughts, as nostalgia never goes out of style. The Sony Cybershot is the OG camera we grew up with, and we were thrilled when the eBay seller accepted our offer outright without snarkiness and/or incremental negotiations. Ours came with a battery, charger, and case (amazing deal!). Similar options here here and here.
Cream Nut Natural Peanut Butter: We are nuts about nut butters. You probs know this if you’ve been following us on social media. And believe us when we tell you that this is it!!! A perfect gritty/creamy balance with robust nutty taste. No preservatives, no oil gathered on top either. Linking restauranteur/entrepreneur Brooks Reitz’s newsletter here bc he influenced us. You know it’s made for purists because it only has 2 ingredients: roasted Virginia peanuts and sea salt.
One-off GEMS that caught our eye
This week’s gems for your eyes only:
Nili Lotan White Long Sleeve: This is literally $20. Miu Miu Striped Shorts: Pricier, but 70% off AND has an irresistible pearl button detail on the side. Miu Miu Sparkly Kitten Heels: Cutesy with a side of funk.
Loewe White Jeans: The orange stitching is everything. Christopher Esber Yellow Chiffon Top: Screams Summer ‘23. The Row Mesh Flats: The flats everyone is talking about right now. And never worn!! You don’t have to drop $700…
Maximilian Davis White Satin Dress: So damn elegant. Christopher Esber Colorblock Heels: Reminiscent of Chloé 2015/16. Anyone remember these?
